Sony shooting fans hungry for the green and the tan will have to import.

As some of you may have noticed, Global Star's first Army Men title, Army Men: Sarge's War, will be appearing on store shelves all over the country later next week -- or at least, for Xbox users it will. The PS2 version of the game has been nowhere to be found.

The reason is because, unlike the GameCube and PC versions which are due out near the end of August, the PlayStation 2 iteration of Sarge's War has been scrapped for American audiences altogether. When we called Global Star representatives to find out why that is, the spokesperson decline to comment. One thing he did do, however, was validate the fact that it won't be coming out in the United States for the PlayStation 2 in any capacity. Not now, not later, not ever.

The good news is, PS2 owners who don't want to buy Sarge's War for any other system but still want to own it cab look towards the UK. Already released in England late last week, Army Men: Sarge's War saw its PS2 debut over there just a few days back. Keep in mind, however, that you'll need a system capable of playing PAL-encoded PS2 discs in order to boot it up.
